Celebrating Sixty-Plus Years of Being a Twin with My Special-Needs Brother was birthed by my desire to honor and celebrate my Twin on our sixtieth birthday.
Rather, it is living life in service to others with an attitude of gratitude and opening our hearts to recognize the blessings, tangible or intangible, that the Lord has given us..
We want our story to give testimony to the fact that joy and contentment in life are not dependent upon circumstances.
However, we would have missed out on so much had we not had our Buddy.
It\'s not a path we would have chosen for Buddy, and I\'ve often wondered what life would have been like for us as twins if Buddy had not been a special-Needs person.
This is the story of our family\'s journey with Buddy, who was brain damaged at birth and diagnosed with epilepsy at sixteen Years of age.
Two Years later, we had the manuscript ready for submission.
We received many comments encouraging us to write a book.
My sister, Dorothy, assisted me on this project.
For several weeks in April of 2020, our sixtieth birthday month, I posted short daily posts on Facebook, telling stories about my twin, Marvin, known as Buddy.
